Chapter 36: Provocation
Outside the city of Yandu, in front of the stele of Zhenjiang.
Although it was early in the morning, it was already crowded with people, crowds of people, one after another, and the crowd of people piled up into a black oppressive piece.
There is no end in sight!
"The hunting period is coming to an end, and I don't know who will win this time!"
"It must be Jiang Ziyou, she is the seventh master of martial arts. Moreover, the Jiang family sent a lot of masters to win the championship for her this time......"
"Lin Yu is not weak, but I heard that Lin Shengfeng sent out all the dead soldiers carefully cultivated by the Lin family!"
"Xu Qilin, Chen Fan, and Jian Thirteen, they all have a chance to compete for the top ......" A middle-aged man dressed as a scholar gently shook the paper fan in his hand, with a look of regret on his face, "It's a pity that Jiang Chen was squeezed out by everyone, and he didn't even have a helper." Otherwise, with his ability to be the first person to climb the Zhenjiang Stone Monument, he is also a popular figure in the competition for the top!"
"Jiang Chen, he has offended the masters of the four major families, and he doesn't know the disobedient envoy who lives or dies, it's good that he can come back alive!"
There was a burst of chatter in the crowd.
Obviously, no one is optimistic about Jiang Chen!
In their opinion, in the hunting trip, only the genius masters cultivated by the forces of the four major families and the Money Chamber of Commerce could compete for the position of leader.
Merely......
But they didn't know that these invincible heavenly prides in their eyes, geniuses who could compete for the top spot, had already died tragically at the hands of Jiang Chen, whom they looked down on!
Knock! Knock!
The melodious bell rang, and Qian Duoduo climbed the altar with excitement on his face, and said: "There are still two hours left until the end of the hunt, and our warriors will be back soon." Now, led by my money chamber of commerce, a handicap will be opened, you can choose the person you think can win the top bet, the time is limited, you have to bet as soon as possible!"
"What? There's a gamble?"
"Look, Jiang Ziyou's odds are only 1 to 0.5? Xu Qilin, Lin Yu, Chen Fan and Jian Thirteen are 1 to 1?"
"Hahaha, Jiang Chen, the first person in Zhenjiang Stele, his odds are actually one to ten? Even the Money Chamber of Commerce is not optimistic about him, it seems that Jiang Chen really has no hope of getting the leader!"
As soon as the odds table of the handicap came out, it immediately attracted everyone's attention.
Even Yun Haoran and the others, who were sitting on the high platform, were attracted by the lively scene below.
Sima Tao said with a smile: "This Qian Duoduo is really worthy of being a talent who can run the Money Chamber of Commerce, and he can even think of opening a gambling game here." ”
"Yes, Qian Duoduo's business acumen is really beyond our reach!" Xu Ying nodded in agreement, his eyes flashed, and he said to the servants beside him, "Go, press 100,000 taels of silver each on Qilin and Miss Jiang." ”
"The head of the Xu family is so generous!"
Chen Tianrun grinned and said, "However, the head of your dignified Xu family has placed a heavy bet on the daughter of the Jiang family, so you can't help but have too little confidence in your son, right?"
Xu Ying said lightly: "This is a transaction, so naturally we must choose the one with the lowest risk." If the head of the Chen family has full confidence in your Chen Fan, why not bet heavily on him?"
"I naturally have full confidence in my son!" Chen Tianrun sneered and ordered his subordinates, "Go, bet 200,000 taels on the young master!"
Lin Shengfeng, Sima Tao, and Jiang Tai all bet one after another.
Sima Tao looked at Yun Haoran and Bai Ling: "Two envoys, why don't you bet on two of them?"
"Since that's the case, then I'll bet 500,000 on Senior Sister Ziyou!" Yun Haoran thought about it, showed an indifferent look, and said.
Sima Tao's eyes lit up, and he said, "It is worthy of being a special envoy, this courage is really amazing!"
Jiang Tai smiled and said, "Thank you for the support of the envoy to the little girl!"
Yun Haoran waved his hand and looked at Bai Ling: "Senior Sister Bai, don't you bet and play?"
"Since Senior Brother Yun wants me to place a bet, then I'll give it a try!" Bai Ling's eyes rolled and he placed 100,000 taels of silver on Jiang Chen's body.
Everyone was stunned.
Yun Haoran raised his eyebrows and sneered: "Senior Sister Bai, you actually bet on Jiang Chen's waste, aren't you afraid that the 100,000 taels of silver will be wasted?"
"Yes, Envoy Bai, you should bet on the little girl!" Jiang Tai said with a flattering face, "The little girl is ninety percent sure of winning the top, bet on her, this is the biggest chance of winning!"
Bai Ling said lightly: "I'm just more optimistic about Jiang Chen, so I naturally bet on him." Not to mention...... Even if you lose, what? It's only 100,000 taels, and I Bai Ling can afford to lose!"
"Hehe, since Senior Sister Bai wants to lose a lot, then I naturally won't say more!" Yun Haoran said in a weird way.
Bai Ling glanced at him and didn't speak.
............
Time passes slowly......
Many of the strong people have returned one after another, everyone has some injuries and blood stains on their bodies, and many of them are so depressed that they almost faint in collapse, obviously in the past five days, their lives have not been comfortable.
During this period, many strong men of the four major families also returned one after another.
The faces of Lin Shengfeng, Chen Tianrun, Xu Ying, Qian Duoduo and others, who were full of excitement and expectation, slowly became difficult to look at.
Seeing that more and more people came back, but the figures of Lin Yu, Chen Fan, Xu Qilin and Jian Thirteen were not seen for a long time, which made them feel a deep sense of unease.
It wasn't until they learned the news of Lin Yu and the others suffering misfortune from the mouths of the surviving and returning family powerhouses, the faces of these family heads and president-level powerhouses completely changed, and a terrifying earth-shattering killing intent erupted from everyone's bodies.
"Who? Who killed my son?"
"Tell me, who killed Qilin? I'm going to break him into pieces!"
"I will avenge my son......"
Lin Shengfeng, Chen Tianrun, Xu Ying, and Qian Duoduo's faces all became extremely ugly, and the killing intent was like a spring gushing out, and a cold aura permeated the sky above the altar.
In the face of the wrath of many giants, no one dared to speak.
Until Jiang Ziyou returns......
"Ziyou's niece, my subordinates told me that you and Xiaoyu worked together to explore the beast's nest. Why did you come back and they all died?" Lin Shengfeng suppressed his anger and said in a deep voice.
Xu Ying, Chen Tianrun, Qian Duoduo and others were also staring at Jiang Ziyou, waiting for her answer.
If it weren't for Jiang Ziyou who was about to become a disciple of the Holy Martial Sword Sect, if it weren't for Yun Haoran being by his side, they would have already grabbed Jiang Ziyou with their tentacles and forced them to interrogate.
Jiang Ziyou's eyes rolled, and he immediately turned into a pitiful posture, with tears surging in his eyes: "Uncle Lin, Uncle Chen, Uncle Qian, and Uncle Xu...... Lin Yu and the others worked with me to deal with the Blue Water Golden-Eyed Beast, but who knew that they were attacked by Jiang Chen and killed them all......"
"It's all my fault for this, Jiang Chen hates me, it's me who has caused Xu Qilin and them......"
Jiang Ziyou said with a look of self-reproach, bursting into tears.
"Jiang Chen, good good, good Jiang Chen......"
"I'm going to tear you to pieces!"
"Peeling and cramping, it's hard to vent the hatred in my heart......"
Lin Shengfeng and the others had fierce eyes and gritted their teeth.
At this moment, everyone remembered a name - Jiang Chen.
This cultivation waste, who has never been favored by the world in the eyes of the world and is spurned by everyone, is even more a homeless and poor worm who has been expelled from the Jiang family......
Lin Shengfeng and the others only took Jiang Chen as a joke, and from beginning to end, they didn't even bother to look at him with their eyes.
But such a little guy actually killed their proudest and best son in their hearts!
This made everyone's killing intent towards Jiang Chen extremely strong!
Jiang Ziyou secretly glanced at everyone, knowing that he had successfully provoked Lin Shengfeng and the others to kill Jiang Chen, and smiled secretly in his heart: Jiang Chen, this time I will see who can save you!
Her heart moved, Chu Chu was pitiful, and said with tears in her eyes: "Uncles, Jiang Chen's methods are too cruel. He took advantage of the fact that we were dealing with the Blue Water Golden-Eyed Beast, secretly attacked, cut off Lin Yu's head with a sword, and said that our four major families are a fart, and if we dare to go against him, there is only one way to die. Xu Qilin, in order to protect me, they were also poisoned, they died too miserably, you must avenge them!"
Under the stimulation of Jiang Ziyou, Lin Shengfeng and the others had even more murderous intent......
These giants who could make Yandu City tremble three times by stomping their feet, all looked in the direction of the Yulan River, just waiting for Jiang Chen to return, and they were going to kill him.
In the limelight......
Jiang Chen's figure finally appeared when the two-hour deadline was approaching.
